Try the standard settings:

There are some screenshots there that might help ?
Ive tried this from the instruction but still wont update :(. any help appreciated. Is there a chance it could be the server settings.
hi. not an answer, sorry, just wanted to join you in a search for the answer. 🙂
i’ve been having the same problem. (kinda tired of going to the ../update-feeds.php page. heh) i’ve never really used cron jobs before. i understand that using cron jobs is a 2 part thing. a cron job will execute a script (as well as other things) at a given time. the other part is the script. so i’m wondering if perhaps the cron job line provided by the creator needs to be modified to tell it what to do WITH the update-feeds.php.
any help out there? pretty plz. 😛
http://www.mkaz.com/ref/unix_cron.html is a good online reference for cron jobs. and obviously man crontab on linux/unix.
I wouldn’t assume that any of your environment variables like $HOME apply when the cron job runs. Use absolute/full paths, so replace the changing directory and just do a php -q /full/path/to/script.php
Now I’m gonna plug my plugin (haw haw) that doesn’t use cron jobs (yet). RSS Friends Aggregator
Has anyone been successful with this? I can’t get a cronjob to work.
Thanks
Just wondering if anyone has been able to get ths cron job to work.
I have entered:
/usr/local/bin/php -q /home/sxmomtzc/wp-content/update-feeds.php as the command.
However i get the following emailed back to myself when it trys to run the cron job:
Could not open input file: /home/sxmomtzc/wp-content/update-feeds.php
Any ideas or help would be great.
Thanks

I want to use http://www.webcron.org/index.php?&lang=en to create a webbased cron for my update-feeds.php. But when I call the UpdateFeeds.php it redirects to the login page.
The problem is that, WebCron.org only supports GET requests. Isn’t there a way to pass the userid and password as querystring to update-feeds.php
Thanks
